In a thread where one poster (A) has a news agent that does references, and one (B) does not, I often see threads which were posted in the order: A1 B1 A2 B2 A3 B3 but the adoption process ends up with: B3 B2 A3 B1 A2 A1 even when A1 has the lowest article number. At the very least, the lowest-numbered article should become the adoptive root. 2) Expiring temporary scores. "But we already have that!", you say. Well, yes, in one way - if a temporary score is unused, it vanishes. But if it gets used, the date field is updated, so it persists. I want temporary scores which expire n days after they are created, whether or not they are used. I'd prefer that this be a score-by-score option, or, at worst, a SCORE-file-by-SCORE-file option, but I'd settle for a global toggle. -- #include /* Sten Drescher */ To get my PGP public key, send me email with your public key and Subject: PGP key exchange Key fingerprint = 90 5F 1D FD A6 7C 84 5E A9 D3 90 16 B2 44 C4 F3
